Excerpt from The Value of Physical Science in the Work of Education: An Address Delivered July 25th, 1865, Upon Laying the Cornerstone of the Jenks Chemical Hall at Lafayette College
The well-known trivium and quadrivium which com posed the curriculum of the middle ages, embraced the principal branches of science cultivated then.
The revival Of classical learning introduced the study of the polished languages of Greece and Rome among the regular branches of education, at'first chiefly for the sake of an introduction to that elegant and varied literature to which they afford the key, afterwards in addition for the discipline of mind which the mastery of the tongues themselves imparted. But how much does the study of language now involve beyond what was thought of or imagined at the beginning! The entire science of philology, with its revelations of the inner structure, the growth and the affinities of tongues is of recent growth.
